LOL ;)<br /><br />What the studies REALLY fail to acknowledge is that those who were already exposed to the most concentrated SHS - children and spouses of smokers - will see an INCREASE of SHS exposure in states with public bans, because the smoker can only smoke at home now, instead of at the pub! Of course, the ANTZ master plan is to eventually get smoking banned in homes and cars anyhow, but who cares if a few more kids die as a result of increased exposure in the meantime, right? (If they truly believe SHS is so dangerous....)Kristin Noll-Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805939875041788133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-45342398182718508422011-09-12T17:57:30.102+01:002011-09-12T17:57:30.102+01:00What these state wide heart attack studies you poi...What these state wide heart attack studies you point out fail to account for is that once a ban goes into effect, most if not all of the smokers move out of state, one state over the state line - and thus heart attacks increase everywhere else making it appear to fall in the state where the ban took effect - so there;)<br />Stanton.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-51061163744338848592011-09-12T17:29:44.526+01:002011-09-12T17:29:44.526+01:00Why the general decline?
